Relias Learning, Consequence Interventions – Flashcards

Focus on removing a behavior that has previously reinforced behavior - these interventions focus on modifying the environment and contingencies that occur often the behaviors to increase or decrease. - Behavioral Interventions - Antecedent Interventions, Replacement Behaviors, Consequence interventions - all equally important

Antecedent Intervention Consequence Antecedent Behavior (gets toy) (no toy) (crying

Attention Escape (avoid) Gain attention, item, or activity self-stimulation

-ID target behaviors trying to eliminate / decrease. -Setting antecedents and events that may be triggering events - The (functioning) of the behavior -Antecedent Interventions -Replacement Behaviors - Consequence Interventions

focus on modifying the environment and contingencies, that occur after the behavior to increase or decrease behavior.

Extinction - often used on behaviors because it doesn't rely on adversive stimuli. Withholding reinforcement from a previously reinforced behavior.

Extinction is NOT ignoring. It means different things depending on behavioral function. Extinction is the discontinuation of reinforcement of a behavior which has been reinforced in the past.

Reinforcement assessment have many benefits. Reinforcement does not have the adversive. Reinforcement procedures should be used before punishment and extinction procedures are used.

Produce involving 2 separate behaviors Target Target Behavior Behavior 1 (increase) 2 (decrease) One behavior is being decreased while the other is being being extinct.

1) DR of Alternate Behaviors (DRA) 2) DR of Incompatible Behaviors (DRI) 3) DR of other behaviors (DRO)

Reinforcing an appropriate alternative to the problem behavior and extinguishing the problem behavior and extinguishing the problem before through extinction. While prompting him/her to do what is asked and reinforced. Doesn't get attention to crying and guides and redirects where she is to go and prompted her to ask without yelling.

Teaches a functional behavior thats equivalent to problem behaviors. DRI reinforces a behavior that is incompatible to the problem behavior and put the target problem behavior on extinction. (After each full bite, let the child watch tv for a few)

Differential reinforcers of other behaviors - Some get mixed up between DRO and DRA - always uses fixed interval schedule.

1) Measure current levels of behavior to get a baseline of how often behavior is occurring and how far apart behaviors are. 2) Set initial intervals lower than baseline to ensure success in the beginning.

Reinforcements counterpart is punishment. Punishment - a stimulus that follows a response that decreases that follows a probability of that response. Punishment - is ONLY punishment if it decreases in response to the intervention.

The addition of an adverse stimulus following a behavior that decreases the behavior.

individuals must complete an activity related to behavior. Restitution correction - learners required to return items to its original state.

The learner is required to practice the correct form of the behavior, or a behavior that is incompatible with the problem behavior. On top of decreasing behavior, it introduces appropriate behavior

1)Don't criticize or scold behaviors. Simply explain. 2) Implement the overreaction sequence immediately. 3)Monitor the individual through the process and gentle prompting, but do not give praise or much after.

Negative Punishment Procedures are considered more "humane" than extinction. 1) report card 2) response card 1) Time-out - The withdrawal or removal of the opportunity to receive and reinforcement for a specific amount of time. Time out - Make dirty distinction on time. Rules of Thumb with Time Out 1) Time out period should be between 2 and 10 minutes. 2)time-out make clear distinction on time. - individual doesn't get any reinforcement while in time out. Rules of Thumb with Time Out 1)Time out period should be between 2 an 10 minutes. Explain time out rules to individual, such as behavior during time out, and how long time out is. 3) Make sure time out Procedure is done consistently 4) Evaluate the Effectiveness of the time out on the behavior.
